He reported that the 2014 budget passed unanimously last year, preserving the county's AAA credit rating. He noted that both the cash reserves and rainy day fund were also preserved. He pointed out, however, that there is an estimated $36 million deficit forecasted for the 2015/2016 biennial budget. Mr. Dunn reported that he chairs the King County Flood Control District and the Regional Transit Committee. He stated that the Flood District has been in operation for five years and has put a quarter of a billion dollars in infrastructure in place across the county. He noted that the district also has received five clean audits by the State Auditor, and has the lowest overhead costs of any large flood district in the nation, at six percent. He remarked that the district will be holding a forum on flooding in Renton in the near future. He invited City officials to attend the meeting. Mr. Dunn reviewed projects along the Cedar River and Green River that protect regional infrastructure. He reported that the district has a discretionary grant funding program that is designed for projects that do not fit neatly within their Six-Year Capital Improvement program. He encouraged the City to apply for these grant funds.

2 April 7, 2014 Renton City Council Minutes Page 92 Mr. Dunn reported that King County has been working with cities to upgrade the transfer station network across the region. He explained that the original proposal calls for the Renton station to be closed, with the waste flow going to the upgraded facilities in Factoria and Bow Lake. Mr. Dunn acknowledged Mayor Law's letter to the King County Council on this subject, and noted that the City's concerns will be taken seriously. Moving to transit issues, Mr. Dunn reported that the RapidRide F-Line begins operation in June. He explained that this line runs from S. 156th St. in Tukwila, to the Tukwila/lnternational Boulevard Link Station, to Southcenter Boulevard and the Southcenter Mall area, and continues to the Renton Park & Ride, Renton Transit Center, and further on to The Landing. He also noted that preapproved modifications to transit service may be implemented dependent upon the outcome of Proposition 1, which comes before voters on April 22. Concluding, Mr. Dunn reported that he has been working on human trafficking issues, and increasing awareness options for parents to legally and safely give up a newborn. He explained that within 72 hours of the birth of the child, a baby can be surrendered to a fire station, a public health clinic, or a hospital without legal accountability. Responding to inquiries from Councilmember Taylor, Mr. Dunn reported that the county is establishing a task force to review this issue. He invited Mr. Taylor to join the taskforce. Councilmember Palmer invited Mr. Dunn to attend the opening ceremony for the new all-inclusive playground located near the Meadow Crest Learning Center on May 17. PUBLIC HEARING Annexation: Trace Matthew, 156th Ave SE & SE 139th PI This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Law opened the public hearing to consider the 60% Notice of Intent to Annex petition and zoning for the proposed Trace Matthew Annexation; 4.54 acres bordered by Renton City limits at the north, 154th Ave. SE to the west, parcel lines in proximity of SE 139th PI. to the south, and 156th Ave. SE to the east. Senior Planner Rocale Timmons reported that the annexation site is within the City's potential annexation area and contains one single-family home and vacant land. She remarked that there are no regulated slopes, critical areas, wetlands, or streams in the area. Ms. Timmons stated that public services are currently provided by Fire District #25, Water District #90, Renton sewer service, and the Issaquah School District. Reviewing the site's zoning, Ms. Timmons stated that existing King County zoning is R-4 (four dwelling units per gross acre). She stated that the City's Comprehensive Plan designates the site as Residential Low Density and that the area was pre-zoned as R-4 (four dwelling units per net acre) and will become effective upon annexation. Ms. Timmons reported that the proposed annexation is generally consistent with City annexation policies and Boundary Review Board objectives. Regarding the fiscal impact analysis, she stated that at current development existing operating fund revenues are at $1,500 with $900 in costs, and at full build-out over ten years would be around $25,000 with costs around $17,700. She also noted that there were no concerns from City departments.

3 April 7, 2014 Renton City Council Minutes Page 93 There being no public comment, it was MOVED BY PRINCE, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. MOVED BY PRINCE, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL ACCEPT THE TRACE MATTHEW 60% DIRECT PETITION TO ANNEX AND AUTHORIZE THE ADMINISTRATION TO FORWARD THE NOTICE OF INTENT TO THE BOUNDARY REVIEW BOARD. CARRIED. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2014 and beyond. Items noted were: The City of Renton recognizes what a terrible impact the Oso Landslide disaster has had on our neighbors to the north. We have been able to contribute in some ways by sending our own people to help them in their time of need. Two specially-trained firefighters were deployed immediately upon request as part ofthe Washington State Urban Search and Rescue Task Force One. While one firefighter has returned from the scene, the other will continue to assist in the recovery efforts there. Two additional firefighters, who are also part of that team, were rotated in to the disaster area on April 3, so the City currently has a total of three firefighters assisting. In addition to the firefighters, the City also responded to a request from Snohomish County and deployed two trained Public Information Officers last Monday to assist at the Joint Information Center in Arlington. Their rotation ended Saturday. Future requests for assistance from Snohomish County will be routed through the King County ECC to Renton's Emergency Management Director Deborah Needham, who will coordinate Renton's response. Public Works: Puget Sound Energy Energize Eastside Proposal Mr. Covington invited Public Works Administrator Gregg Zimmerman to discuss Puget Sound Energy's (PSE) Energize Eastside proposal. Mr. Zimmerman reported that he is Renton's designated representative on Puget Sound Energy's Citizens Advisory Group. He reviewed the Energize Eastside proposal, Puget Sound Energy's public outreach efforts to date, and the project timeline. He emphasized the importance of attending the meetings. Mr. Zimmerman stated that the administration has determined that the City has more authority than originally thought regarding the final alignment of the proposed routes. He remarked that Renton has informed PSE that it intends to be the lead permitting agency for this project. Mr. Zimmerman reported that the City has been hearing strong opposition to the L route from the public. He noted that citizens would also like PSE to restructure their meetings so there are more opportunities for question and answer sessions; and they would like PSE to seriously consider undergrounding the transmission lines. He noted that there may be an opportunity for costs of undergrounding the lines to be borne by all ratepayers. Mr. Zimmerman reported that Mayor Law sent a letter to Puget Sound Energy on April 2, 2014 expressing strong opposition to the L route, and indicating that mitigation along the existing M route could be done to make that route less visible and intrusive. He pointed out that PSE has stated that construction of the new L route would not eliminate the existing M route.

4 April 7, 2014 Renton City Council Minutes Page 94 Additionally, Mr. Zimmerman reviewed the following four points he will raise with Puget Sound Energy: 1) The City is not convinced that the demand for growth in Renton is as high as neighborhoods north of PSE will need to demonstrate that the proposed 230kV line is actually needed south of ) If Renton's demand is not what is driving this expansion, if it is really growth north of 1-90, then perhaps another alternative such as the one Mr. Corman voiced regarding running the lines along the 1-90 corridor from Issaquah, is warranted. 3) PSE states in their literature that underground power lines provide more secure service that is less prone to outages. Why is it then not a benefit to the entire region with costs shared by all ratepayers? 4) There is an 115kV line that runs along Lake Washington Blvd. Why did PSE not explore keeping that route, instead proposing to move the lines closer to the lake along the railroad tracks? Mr. Zimmerman asked Council for additional points of discussion to be raised at the next Energize Eastside Community Advisory Group meeting. Councilmember Taylor stated that he attended the subarea workshop last week and is concerned by the lack of diversity of the attendees. He also stated that he is concerned for citizens who live along the M route, and would prefer if it were undergrounded. He added that he believes a third party should conduct an independent study to determine if the increased capacity is actually needed. Councilmember Briere remarked that Seattle City Light sets aside funds to underground lines in neighborhoods every year, and she finds it interesting that PSE has no interest in undergrounding their lines. She also noted that the impact to residents living along the M route should be further investigated. Councilmember Corman expressed appreciation for investigating his idea of running the lines from Issaquah to Bellevue along the 1-90 corridor. He added that he too believes parts of either route will need to be undergrounded. Mayor Law remarked that this will be a long process, and Council can send Mr. Zimmerman their comments at any time. He also noted that any citizens concerns directed to Council should also be sent to Mr. Zimmerman. He stated that all of these concerns will be forwarded to Puget Sound Energy. Council President Persson remarked that citizens have repeatedly asked him what the new poles will look like. He stated that is an issue he would like PSE to resolve. He added that he too prefers that the lines be undergrounded. Executive: Governing for Racial Equity Conference Mr. Covington invited Deputy Public Affairs Administrator Preeti Shridhar to speak about a conference entitled "Governing for Racial Equity" she recently attended in Portland, Oregon. Ms. Shridhar reported that she had the opportunity to present a two-hour presentation about the City's efforts and progress towards building an inclusive city with opportunities for all at the conference. She also noted that she attended a plenary session with Councilmember Taylor the next morning, where folks from around the country were able to share experiences and achievements within their communities.

5 April 7, 2014 Renton City Council Minutes Page 95 Ms. Shridhar reported that the intent ofthe conference was to build and sustain public will, strengthen alliances between government organizations, work on policy, and expand capacity by leveraging resources. She remarked that this conference was initially meant to be regional, but has become national since its inception two years ago. Ms. Shridhar shared highlights ofthe conference and plenary session, and information regarding an invitation for Renton to join a national program regarding race and social justice. Ms. Shridhar introduced the conference's founding member Benita Horn. She noted that Ms. Horn is a Renton resident, and remarked that the City is privileged to have contracted Ms. Horn to help Renton's effort to build a sustainable equity and social justice program. Ms. Horn shared her experience, and expressed appreciation for the opportunity to work with the City on this issue. She remarked that she intends to build a program that becomes a systemic purpose for the City. She stated that she and Ms. Shridhar will work hard to make sure that all voices in Renton are heard. AUDIENCE COMMENT Citizen Comment: Wallace- Lodging Tax Advisory Committee Allocation Recommendations Lynn Wallace (Renton), representing the Chamber of Commerce, expressed appreciation for the partnership between the City and the Chamber of Commerce. She remarked that the Chamber is excited to announce that marketing efforts will be enhanced to include the Kitsap Peninsula this year. She also noted that the fountains at the Visitors Center will be repaired this year. Additionally, Ms. Wallace stated that television ads and online marketing will be enhanced. Councilmember Palmer remarked that $4,000 was added to the marketing budget to advertise on the radio in the peninsula, and $1,500 was added to get the fountains working as soon as possible. Discussion ensued regarding zoning restrictions for hotels in Renton, and reducing the restrictions to allow hotels in more zones. It was noted that this topic is currently before the Planning and Development Committee as part of the 2014 docket items. Citizen Comment: McOmber- Puget Sound Energy's Energize Eastside Proposal Citizen Comment: Asher - Service Core of Retired Executive (SCORE) Howard McOmber (Renton) remarked that Puget Sound Energy is not a public utility. He stated that PSE is against undergrounding the power lines, and expressed appreciation to the administration for investigating this option. Mr. McOmber remarked that PSE presented two route options, but there are alternatives to explore. Beth Asher (Renton) stated that there is an organization called Service Core of Retired Executives (SCORE) who volunteer to mentor businesses and business people. She remarked that Renton could benefit from such a group. Additionally, Ms. Asher remarked that Puget Sound Energy was unable to provide proof that the added capacity to their system needed to be shunted through the Talbot Hill station. Council discussion ensued regarding the process of undergrounding the transmission lines. It was noted that there may be areas that are impractical to underground, but neighborhoods in the Highlands or Talbot Hill area could benefit from underground lines. It was also noted that it is difficult to find a map depicting where every transmission line is located within the city.

6 April 7, 2014 Renton City Council Minutes Page 96 Citizen Comment: Adkins - Piper's Bluff Development Brad Adkins (Renton) stated that two months after he purchased his property in the Renton Highlands, the lot across the street sold to a developer. He remarked that he has essentially had to build a moat around his home because the developer is causing May Creek to flood his property. Mr. Adkins stated that he has had to hire a lawyer to help battle the developer, the home builder, and the City. He expressed frustration with the situation and invited City officials and staff to visit his property to see the situation firsthand. Mayor Law remarked that the administration will review the issue and provide a response to Council and Mr. Adkins.
